D1 should be correctly connected as you can se from one of the picture above.
Pass says that this should drawind down the dc voltage when the power supply is turned off. that is not what actually happens. the led stays on for a long time

What it does is set the gate voltage to 9V so that Vgs is set to around 0V (with an 18V supply), this is important for the correct operation of the buffer

Stop using a remote server.
Attach your pics so that we see Thumbnails that load very quickly and can expand whichever Thumbnail we require to see @ full size.

Each time I load or re-load a page I have to wait for the remote server to download every pic file in full size. It is infuriating having to wait, before I can do a refresh.

the divider R2 R3 seems to work because once C2 is fully charged the V across R2 / R3 are nine volts.
Voltage before R103/203 is still 9V and raises to 18 Volts After R103/203 so gate and Drain seems to be at the same potential
